Argh...they're all awake!

I agree, I leave them for the whole nap, always and I usually get a good nap time 2-2.5hrs. It is just frustrating when you are sick, the kids are sick and they aren't sleeping so it's just a miserable scream fest. I think I was just feeling "screw it," as not a single one was sleeping what was the point and I felt pretty lousy as I needed a break.

YOur title just made me smile -- been there and done that. I know exactly what you are feeling. TGIF !!!

Never ever go back in - then they will always cry and see if it brings you or if they can get up early.

I would leave them because the sooner they learn the nap times the better for everyone.

I sometimes will go get the brood 30 minutes earlier or so but never would I not try to stick out at least an hour.

Good luck and I hope your afternoon gets better
